The Stanley Cup



As most of you know, Doug is a big fan of hockey, and especially the Detroit Red Wings. Since we don't have cable and can't watch too many of the regular season games, and even some of the playoff games I have had to do it online. The last few weeks I have been able to watch the Stanley Cup Finals on regular free TV. Unfortunately the games have been played while I have been busy with other meetings and visits. I have taped the last games and then watched them late into the night. (Heather sometimes wants to watch a movie when I get home so we watch her movie first and have all the kids asleep, and then I finally get to turn on the Hockey game.) I was hoping for Detroit to finish it off in Game 5 at home, but that didn't turn out too well, but a great game to watch. As I was leaving for my visits on Wednesday, Heather was joking that she wasn't going to tape the game and I was a little worried. I know she wouldn't do that to me. When I got home I made sure nobody told me what happened, but I did make sure that if the Red Wings won that she taped the celebration afterwards as well. Before I could watch my game we had to see Heather's movie first so we watched the "Bee Movie" and had the kids asleep. I turned on my game and stayed up 'til 2:00 am to watch, and that was fast forwarding through the commercials. Needless to say I got to watch my favorite team hoist the cup. What a wonderful game! GO REDWINGS!!!!
